Hello.

Is it true that 6th generation iPod Nanos can't be jailbroken and have
apps like the other Apple's i* products? I would like to get a
scheduler/calendar, a calculator, etc. like my old school Casio Data
Bank calculator watches since people use these iPod Nanos on wrist like
watches.

Thank you in advance. :)
